I've mentioned this before I think: I used to make a salad dressing
with condensed milk, vinegar, and hot mustard powder. Just vary the
components to get the consistency and heat you want. Went well with
my standard tossed salad (the only sort of salad I actually like).
Another thought: Condensed milk seems to live forever in the fridge.
If air can get at it, it will form a crust that you have to break
through to get at the still-liquid stuff below. (Come to that, the
crust is very edible too. :-)
Cheers, Phred.
